Instrument Surround Install

I have been looking into getting a colored instrument surround for my '10. C2S and could not find any install steps or videos. Is this something I can do or leave it to the pro's. I dont mind taking things apart but sometimes it's more work than anticipated.

I have been told that it's simple. I will try to help find an answer, as I am considering the same thing.

I believe this is what you're looking for http://forums.rennlist.com/rennforum...uster-diy.html . After the removal of the instrument cluster, ther are 5 or 6 Torx screws that you need to unscrew prior to removal of the surround. I'm also contemplating replacing the surround with MACarbon CF pieces.
